SUMMARY:CESSDA 50
DESCRIPTION:Digital transformation\, open science\, and artificial intelligence are shaping how research is carried out and its connection with society. From climate change\, inequality\, to disinformation – as social challenges grow more urgent and complex\, the need for trustworthy\, interoperable\, and policy-relevant social science data has never been greater. In this evolving landscape\, social science data archives play a critical role in maximising the benefits of research data while mitigating potential risks\, under the principle of “as open as possible and as closed as necessary”. \nIn 2026\, CESSDA\, the Consortium of European Social Science Data Archives\, celebrates its 50th anniversary. This conference marks its five decades of collaboration\, innovation\, and service to the European social science research community. It brings together its Service Providers and partners\, as well as researchers\, open science and data experts\, policy actors\, funding partners\, and networks from across Europe and beyond to reflect on its legacy and chart a shared vision for the future. \nThe four-day conference programme is anchored in CESSDA’s strategic pillars (2023–2027) of Data\, People\, and Landscape. The conference is an opportunity for scientific and policy voices to ask bold questions\, strengthen synergies\, and set the course for a future-ready European Research Area. \nThe Objectives of the Conference\nThe conference marks the 50th anniversary of CESSDA. It celebrates its impact on open science and open data in the European Research Area and beyond. It brings together CESSDA Service Providers\, researchers\, policy actors\, partner organisations\, and international networks to share knowledge\, showcase achievements\, and address the evolving landscape of research and innovation. \n  \nOn Wednesday June 17\, EOSC Association President\, Klaus Tochtermann and Michael Arentoft of the European Commission shall participate in a panel discussion on the importance of having strategic partnerships and policy alignment to build an inclusive and competitive European Research Area.

SUMMARY:Applying the EOSC Federation Handbook / Online session 2 (EOSC Academy Course 2)
DESCRIPTION:The EOSC Federation Handbook is a practical guide for facility managers\, resource providers\, and technical staff implementing the EOSC Federation. This course will explain how to apply the Federation Handbook with the help of real-world Node implementations. It will provide guidance on how to build Nodes and join the Federation. The course targets organizations preparing\, or are in the start-up phase to build Nodes and EOSC community members seeking deeper understanding of Federation processes. \n\n\n\n\nSpecific goals of the course: \n\nExplain what readers of the Handbook can expect to learn from the Handbook.\nClarify what can and cannot be found in the Handbook.\nPresent how the Handbook requirements were applied by specific Nodes.\nLearn how to Apply the building of a Node and join the Federation.\nConvey the idea of the Handbook as a community effort (led and carried out by the community)\, that it is in continuous evolution\, and that feedback is welcome and desired (stressing the channels to do that would be good)\n\nThe course targets the beneficiaries of the Gravity Preparatory and Interproject Calls who are preparing to build a Node as well as organisations and experts within the EOSC community who wish to deepen their understanding of the Federation and the processes supporting its development. \nTo ensure the course is as interactive as possible the strategy is to use a “flipped classroom” approach. The goal is to encourage the audience to engage with the EOSC Federation Handbook (aka Handbook) before the session\, so the online sessions can focus on high-level explanation and answering their specific questions. \nBy the end of this course\, the learner will:\n\n\nHave detailed knowledge of the Handbook:\nUnderstand the significance of the Handbook;\nBe able to reflect on how to apply it to their own needs;\nBe able to formulate and answer questions on the process of becoming a node.
